Bomb Techs Order Evacuation in Redding

Shasta County's sheriff says bomb technicians found 40 pounds of explosives at the home of a Redding man - whose hand was severed during an explosion - and that authorities still want neighbors within a 1,000-foot radius to evacuate.

The Record Searchlight in Redding reported that some of the materials viewed through a bomb robot are considered so unstable that deputies have not been able to enter the home.
